A book has just appeared in Berlin en-,
titled "rhe Courts OF Europe" The
authors name is not on the title page.
Is gives q formal history Of all the royal
families, with much interesting informa.
tlon concerning them.
The article relating to the English
court gives an entirely new version OF
the differences which are only reported
to exist between the Marquis Of Lorne
and the Princess Louise. Hitherto it
has always been said that the
princess was fond OF flirting, and that it
the marquis who was jealous.
According to the publication in ques-
tion, however, it appears that il is tho
princess who suffers from tortnres of
jealousy. 1t is stated that she carried
her conjugal suspicious to such an ex-
tent that she is happy nowhere. She is
reported TO have said one day to the
Duchess OF Albany; "Oh il | only knew
OF some place where / could conceal my
husband SO as to be sur of him. l am
SO u~nfortunate.o
Some time subsequently the princess
went With her sister-in-law to pray at
the tomb OF the Duke of Albany. Ao-
ending to this book the princess said to
the duchess: sThe woman whose hus-
band lies buried there is happier than I
am.

NOTHING Omcial Yet.

Dubuque Herald. Is: No official
word has been received here by any of
the parties interested. either directly or
indirectly, OF the result Of the recent
meeting in New York of she directors Of
the Illinois Central and Dubuque and
Sioux City. No word as to the terms OF
any sale have been definitely sent here,
though it is we'll known that the sale
has been consummated on some terms.
The Dubuque and Sioux City have sent
word to their attorneys that their bills
will be received, and from that it is
guessed that the old road wants to close
up all business. The old corporation
will have to be kept up regardless of
ownership, at least until all bonds OF
the road are paid, either in cash or by
exchange for Illinois Central bonds.
